Please allow me to correct the record first and foremost because you did ask a question that was not true. You also cited an organization that does not exist. Hubert Lacroix said the following: it is “the right outcome for Canadian hockey fans”. That's what he said about this deal. The executive of CBC has said there is no $200 million, a number being quoted by people who choose to invent numbers. I just wanted to say that.
Now onto museums. I'm very proud that this government was one of the only governments that did not touch museums during a very difficult global recession. So thank you for asking the question because we are very proud of our museums. They are about our Canadian history and our identity. We have in fact invested $142 million more since 2006 into our national museums. We value the stories they tell. We value the collections they house. We have also created two new national museums, including one in my home province, in my home city in fact across the river from my riding, the Human Rights Museum, and of course, we also have in Halifax Pier 21, the museum that will talk about immigration and celebrate the very important immigration aspects.
It was Canadian Museums Day just the other day. I met with a number of people in the field of museums. They're very pleased with some of the changes this government has put forward, including the investments we've made. In particular, they were very happy that we changed the travelling exhibitions program. There was a time under other governments where if a museum wanted to share exhibits, if they wanted to bring other exhibits into their museum, it could only be done if the exhibits went out of province. We have changed that recently—
